Fields is a high-cut, long-striding build-up speed deep threat option for an NFL offense that relies upon his size and physicality at the catch point. Fields has a large catch radius with the ability to sky for above-the-rim targets. He displays strong body control in the air, adjusting to back shoulder throws. Fields does use his size effectively on in-breaking routes in the short and intermediate areas of the field. He has a strong understanding of exploiting a cornerback's leverage and how to pace his routes against zone coverage. He does display solid ball tracking on downfield routes. He has to continue to add to his release package and improve his footwork at the top of his stem. Fields will lag on the line at times with some "TikTok" footwork before launching into his route stem. His change of direction with getting out of his route breaks can look clunky at times and lacks suddenness. Fields isn't a dynamic threat after the catch. He had only 4.7 yards after the catch per reception in college and only exceeded 5.3 yards after the catch per reception once in his five-year collegiate career. He averaged nine missed tackles per season across his final three collegiate seasons. Dynasty Outlook: Fields is heading to the Giants via the third round of the NFL Draft. He might have trouble getting on the field during this rookie season with Darnell Mooney, Darius Slayton, and likely Calvin Austin above him on the depth chart. Fields is a field stretcher that I don't think profiles as a high-end target earner in the NFL. Over the last two collegiate seasons, he ranked 80th and 116th in yards per route run while finishing with a 70th percentile collegiate breakout age. Fields is an early third-round pick in dynasty rookie drafts.
